Nov 2024

I booked a ‘One Bed in a Coed Dorm Room 5 beds’ at Villa Saint Exupéry Beach Hostel but the hostel gave me a three bunk bed (six people) room. The picture of the room I booked on Hotels.com was two bunk bed (four people) plus one single bed (one person), so it was a room used by a total of five people. I asked the hostel to change it to the room which I initially reserved but the hostel told me, "the room had been given to someone else" and they told me to complain to Hotels.com I do not condone this breach of the hostel’s contract because the room used by 5 people and the room used by 6 people are different in size and rates. I have made a reservation through Hotels.com one month before I arrived at the hostel but the hostel gave the room to someone else for higher rates. So this hostel is making money is a dishonest way and misleading customers They did not even apologize to me for breaking the contract and they were very rude to me. Therefore, I looked for other hostels but they were all full and it was in the middle of the night, so I could not move to another hostel. I traval around the world every month so I have a lot of experience staying at different location and hostels/hotels However this is the first time I have come across a hostel/hotel which is just dishonest. If the hostel does not sort out this issue properly for their breach of contract then I will report them to the department of Nice, France.

Nice rooms and good space. Only thing is that the doors are open underneath and that meant we heard all that happened outside our room

Overall the hostel is really close to the center of Nice. I found the bathroom to be spacious the other guests were quiet. It was clean and the staff was accommodating. The one issue I had was when I locked the bathroom it was a struggle to unlock. This was really nice for an affordable acommodations.

The location is great, walking-distance to most places. I booked a private room, and was disappointed. The room was not clean at all, neither the building we stayed in. The ventilation and AC did not work in our room. First night it made terrible sound. Next day we discovered it did not work at all. Went to the reception and just got told "personally, there is nothing I can do. We fix tomorrow". The receptionist came and checked our room and said "there is no air in here, but we fix tomorrow". We could not sleep that night because it was too warm in the room. They fixed it the next day and it got much better.

Had a private room which was located at a different entrance that required a key card to be unlocked which felt secure. The room looked great with a great AC, however the noice from people walking by in the corridor was really loud, almost as if they were in the room. Furthermore the window had no view (adding a picture) and we had no hand towel or towel to stand on after the shower. The breakfast was decent. Was overall expecting a bit more for the price, but at the same time I didn’t take advantage of all the facilities that they had which probably is the strongest side to the hostel.

The lounging area is pretty nice at first glance but they need new bedding and sofas because they are tearing, old, and dirty. I was talking to one of the girls at the desk about the wifi going out and another white worker jumped in and rudely told me it would take about 2/3 business days to fix. I said well we should get compensation because I paid good money for my room and to not have wifi is an inconvenience. She said there’s nothing we can do about that. I talked to the manager who visits on site and he was able to get it fixed by the end of the night so what was her problem? They dont provide towels on the floor after you shower which is a hazard because people walk around with wet shoes after they shower. There was a bad smell on one of the beds above me for 2 nights. I think someone complained and they switched the beds. They arent doing well to upkeep the facility, yet they are expensive to stay at. Its only convenient if you want to be right near the beach. They need to work on making their workers happier so they arent taking out their frustration on the people staying at the hostel. Every time you ask a question its like youre interrupting the worker. If there was another close hostel Id stay there but theres not many options.

It had an own bar with nice and lively facilities. Always someone around to ask questions if need be. Good price close to the beach and center. Only thing I didn’t appreciate was the breakfast that was very shy and that you also needed to was your own dishes after that, but apart from that very good hostel.

The most uncomfortable bed I've ever slept in! Dirty towels and very unfresh bedsheets. Paperthin walls, you can hear everything from the hallway. Very poor breakfast and you have to clean your utensils yourself. Only good thing was the location. The staff was very rude and didn't care about their guests whatsoever.

this was my 2nd time staying at this hostel and i absolutly, love it the facilty is amazing it has everything from a kitchen where its very clean , you can prepare your own meals if like, they offer breakfast in the morning for a small fee, the place it self is very cool alot of great areas to lounge, study or do your work on the computer, lil library upstair, the location is great and the staff is very helpful and lovely... i stayed in roo 46 the first time which sleeps 6 and it was great, this visit room 204 with 10 ppl and it was good also.... I highly recommend this hostel it was great... only negative i have to say is that this bathroom needs a bit more deep cleaning done to it ... other than that its great place. for solo traveler, families or with friends the energy and vibes are great...

Loved my stay here! Reception and service staff were very helpful and gave great recommendations on what to see/do. They also hosted free walking tours and bar crawls with surrounding hostels. In the hostel itself, there are lots of communal spaces but also secluded areas to work/study. Would highly recommend!

TLDR: As a single female traveller, I did not feel safe staying at this hostel, even in a private room. Pros: comfy bed, spacious and updated bathroom Cons: security and cleanliness My first night I was woken up by someone trying to get into my room. When they heard me moving inside they tried harder, to the point where I was holding the door in case the lock broke. The secondary physical lock was broken on my door, and when I asked the front desk they said that is the case for most rooms. I could not call the hotel as I only had wifi and no phone in the room. I stayed quiet for 2 hours waiting for someone else to leave their room. I am not sure what this person was trying to do, but regardless I did not trust the lock in the door to hold if someone really tried to break it. They have 24/7 security but that doesn’t help much when the private rooms are in a separate building from the main hostel and you can’t contact them. I checked out first thing in the morning and was told I was not able to get a refund for the remainder of my stay because it was through Expedia. Front desk staff were nice enough but I did not feel comfortable moving to another room after experiencing the security measures in place. I would not recommend this hotel for single travelers.

Lets start with the positives, the area is great. And the soundproofing within the hostel is good. Thats about it. I travel a lot, i stay in everything from hostels to fancy hotels. This is somewhere I'd never return to. I get it, F1 weekend, everywhere is sold out. However, when you book a 4 bed room, there should only be 4 beds in there - not 5. Communication with staff shocking, no one knew anything and the managers offer of a free crappy breakfast for 1 day when I have Nice on the doorstep is unacceptable customer service. A refund for at least one night would be the least I would expect. You are overselling a product - and not a very good one. I have stayed in a lot of hostels all over the world. The quality of this one is one of the worst. Rickety metal frame beds, no privacy cutains etc. No individual lights. 4 broken and busted up lockers - for 5 people I hasten to add. The photos do not represent what this place is selling. I don't think I've ever left such a negative review of a place. Such a shame as it could be so much better. Like I say, the location was excellent.

Thanks for my 7 day visit, overall very satisfied, special star to cleaning guy, he seemed to always be around cleaning:) and did it very well! One thing I would like to wish for is a small shelf on the wall by the bed, to put phone etc on! Also some kind of "curtain" to be more private would have been ezcellent! I put up my towel, it worked but not optimal. All the best, I´ll be back in July
